A Greek filmmaker exiled in the USA, known as ‘A’, comes back to his native city, for an the exceptional screening of one of his films, a very controversial one. But A is looking for something different: the mythical reels of the very first film shot by Manakis brothers, who, in the beginning of cinema, go untiringly across the Balkans, unconcerned about the national and ethnic differences, to preserve the testimony of a region and its customs. (Huesca International Film Festival)
